Chargers CB Trevor Williams' injury doesn't seem 'serious'

Chargers cornerback Trevor Williams injured his leg during the team’s fourth practice of training camp. Williams was hurt while defending wide receiver Mike Williams in a drill, dealing another potential blow to the depth in the defensive secondary. After getting attention from the training staff, he left on crutches with his left foot in a walking boot.

Coach Anthony Lynn offered some promising words on the status of Williams when we spoke with the media.

”You’re holding your breath there. I think he sprained his ankle, but I don’t think it’s bad. I mean, it’s the fourth day of training camp. Hell, we have coaches around here limping. Coaches are sore, so I can’t imagine how the players feel,” Lynn said.

He also seems confident about the depth behind him and feels that the next man up is capable of filling in the role nicely if worst case scenario happens.

”If Trevor’s ankle is bad, then I would be concerned about the depth there. But, I’m also confident in those young guys behind him. They’re stepping up and making plays in practice, and there’s going to be a nice competition in that group,” Lynn said.

Williams has yet to go under any further tests, but fans are hoping for nothing but the best news as the team can’t afford to see another CB go down, especially after Jason Verrett suffered a torn Achilles Friday.
